1440Report: Jameis Winston Meeting with Tampa Bay Buccaneershttp://sportsnaut.com/2015/03/report-jameis-winston-meeting-with-tampa-bay-buccaneers/
<p><font color="Gray">Source: sportsnaut.com --- Tuesday, March 03, 2015</font><br />According to NFL Media Insider Albert Breer, Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston traveled to <b>Tampa</b> Monday night for a meeting with the <b>Buccaneers</b>. Over the course of the draft season, each team is allowed 30 player meetings at their facility. The meeting with Winston is unusually early, especially considering teams usually wait until after pro day’s have been conducted in order to chum it up with potential draft picks. Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher said last week that <b>Buccaneers</b> officials contacted FSU coaches regarding Winston. Additionally, Lovie Smith stated at the NFL Scouting Combine that he would feel comfortable making Winston the face of the franchise. News of this meeting would certainly indicate that the <b>Buccaneers</b> are leaning towards selecting the Florida State product with the first pick in this year’s draft. The meeting is expected to last multiple days.

<p><font color="Gray">Source: bleacherreport.com --- Monday, March 02, 2015</font><br />A year ago, the <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b> <b>Buccaneers</b> signed Anthony Collins to serve as the foundation of their offensive line. One disappointing season later, and it appears they're ready to move on. Continue for updates. <b>Buccaneers</b> to Trade or Release Collins Monday, March 2 Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b> will release Collins if it is unable to find a trade partner: Collins, 29, is scheduled to count $6 million against the cap in 2014, per Spotrac . The <b>Buccaneers</b> will have to pay a $3 million surcharge in dead money for trading him or releasing him outright. None of the remaining four years of Collins' contract come with guaranteed salaries, so any team that trades for him would essentially have him on a year-to-year deal. Collins signed with the <b>Buccaneers</b> last offseason after spending his first six years in Cincinnati. One of the league's best and most versatile backup tackles with the Bengals , <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b> signed Collins with the hope he could shore up its blind side. Things did not go as expected. Collins committed nine penalties—surpassing his previous career total (seven)—and he allowed a career-worst four sacks, per The Washington P ost . Pro Football Focus' pass-blocking metric ranked Collins 39th among the 54 qualifying offensive tackles last season. His overall grade was by far the worst of his career. It will be interesting to see what type of market develops.

<p><font color="Gray">Source: bleacherreport.com --- Monday, March 02, 2015</font><br />There truly is no offseason for the NFL , and the next stop on the road that is 2015 is upon us, with the opening of free agency just a little over a week away. The <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b> <b>Buccaneers</b> have been active participants in free agency the last few years, signing some of the bigger names on the market over that time. A few have worked out, but many have been disappointments, leading some to wonder if the Bucs will go after any big fish in this year's crop. According to Spotrac, the Bucs are currently looking at just under $28 million in cap space , so they definitely have some cash to go shopping with. Much of the offseason focus for <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b> has centered around the draft—the Bucs hold the No. 1 overall pick—but for a 2-14 team going into its second season under general manager Jason Licht and head coach Lovie Smith, free agency could be equally important for filling needs and building depth. What do the Bucs need to do to make this year's free-agency period a success? Here's my take.

Mandatory Credit: David Manning-USA TODAY Sports The Cowboys have made it clear, they aren’t breaking the bank in free agency. They’ll focus largely on trying to re-sign their own and possibly make some deals similar to the one that helped them land veteran defensive end Jeremy Mincey a year ago. Focusing solely on the offense, re-signing Pro Bowl running back DeMarco Murray will be at the top of their list. If Murray finds a better deal on the open market, running back could become Dallas’ No. 1 offensive need in free agency. Here are four players that could draw interest from the Cowboys if Murray does not re-sign. Mark Ingram. Jerry Jones spoke so highly of Lance Dunbar at the scouting combine that I believe the restricted free agent will be back in 2015. Dunbar is best outside in space. Without Murray, the Cowboys would likely be targeting a physical runner. Ingram would fill that void. The 25-year-old former first-round pick is coming off his best season, rushing for 964 yards and nine touchdowns for the Saints in 2014. Jason Garrett is good friends with Nick Saban. I can’t imagine Saban would give anything but a ringing endorsement for Alabama’s only Heisman Trophy winner. Ryan Mathews.

<p><font color="Gray">Source: bleacherreport.com --- Friday, February 27, 2015</font><br />Josh McCown's tenure with the <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b> <b>Buccaneers</b> is over, but the veteran quarterback has landed on his feet after signing with the Cleveland Browns. The Browns announced Friday that they have agreed to terms with the 35-year-old signal-caller. Mike Garafolo of Fox Sports reported it is a three-year contract. After an excellent 2013 season that saw McCown throw for 13 touchdowns and one interception in place of Jay Cutler as a member of the Chicago Bears, the Bucs brought him aboard last year in the hopes that he could solve their problems under center. That ultimately wasn't the case, though, as he threw for 11 touchdowns and 14 interceptions in 11 contests, while posting one of the NFL 's worst QBR numbers, per ESPN Stats & Info: <b>Tampa</b> went a league-worst 2-14, and with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2015 NFL draft in its back pocket, the team decided to release McCown on Feb. 11, according to the <b>Buccaneers</b>' official Twitter account: By making that move, the Bucs save themselves more than $5 million entering the 2015 campaign, per Greg Auman of the <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b> Times : Although the move cost McCown money—since it wasn't guaranteed—it actually worked to his benefit that he was released prior to free agency, according to the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport: The timing gave McCown a jump on the rest of the free-agent quarterbacks, which is something he was grateful for, per Rick Stroud of the <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b> Times : There is no doubt McCown ...</p>http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2363431-josh-mccown-to-browns-latest-contract-details-comments-and-reactionFri, 27 Feb 2015 22:32:00 GMTEagles determined to draft Mariota?http://insider.espn.go.com/blog/nfl/rumors/post?id=27583

<p><font color="Gray">Source: bleacherreport.com --- Friday, February 27, 2015</font><br />Though the <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b> <b>Buccaneers</b> have a long list free-agency tasks, they should have just one benchmark for success: to do better than last year. Last season, the Bucs added more than $130 million in free-agent contracts. The majority of the money was invested in five players: defensive end Michael Johnson, offensive tackle Anthony Collins, cornerback Alterraun Verner , center Evan Dietrich-Smith and defensive tackle Clinton McDonald. The only player of that group to perform consistently was McDonald, though Verner performed admirably despite his injury problems. The Bucs can't afford to once again invest large sums in dead weight like Collins and Johnson. That won't be easily avoided, especially considering the crop of free agents this year. The first thing the Bucs need to do in preparation for free agency is cut their overpaid players, starting with safety Dashon Goldson and Collins. Neither Goldson nor Collins lived up to his contract since coming to <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b>. Cutting them would save the Bucs $10 million in 2015 cap space, per Over The Cap, more than enough to sign replacements or address other problems on the roster. Second on the Bucs' list of free-agent priorities is to do what they failed at doing last year: sign a cornerstone offensive lineman. This year's crop of linemen isn't as strong at the tackle position but is far better at guard. The Bucs need both, which is where Denver guard/tackle Orlando Franklin enters the ...</p>http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2378075-tampa-bay-buccaneers-ultimate-free-agency-to-do-listFri, 27 Feb 2015 15:10:00 GMT5 Pass-Rushers the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Must Consider in the 2015 NFL Drafthttp://bleacherreport.com/articles/2378726-5-pass-rushers-the-tampa-bay-buccaneers-must-consider-in-the-2015-nfl-draft
<p><font color="Gray">Source: bleacherreport.com --- Friday, February 27, 2015</font><br />The <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b> <b>Buccaneers</b> had plenty of rebuilding to do heading into last offseason but, unfortunately for their fans, the 2015 offseason is simply "Phase 2" for a franchise with plenty of holes still left to fill. One area of need the Bucs thought they addressed last year was adding a dynamic pass-rusher to their front four. But after signing a lucrative deal with the team in free agency, Michael Johnson turned in a disappointing 2014 season, managing just four sacks and rarely having a significant impact on opposing quarterbacks. Thankfully for <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b>, this year's draft class features an incredibly deep class of edge-rushers. It's possible they could grab one in free agency, but with so many attractive prospects available at the position, it wouldn't be surprising to see the Bucs grab one at some point in the draft. Assuming they take a quarterback with the No. 1 overall pick, here are five pass-rushers the Bucs should target in Rounds 2-4.

Here are the positions they will need to improve through this years draft. Quarterback: The <b>Buccaneers</b> will be looking to improve at quarterback after they released veteran Josh McCown due to his dismal performance last season. <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b> has shown great interest in Florida State’s quarterback Jameis Winston with even head coach Lovie Smith declaring he wants to select him with their first pick. However, the <b>Buccaneers</b> can shock the world by taking Oregon’s Marcus Mariota . The <b>Buccaneers</b> have plenty of choices to choose from if they do indeed select a quarterback with the first pick. Running-Back: It was a dreadful year for <b>Tampa</b> <b>Bay</b>’s running backs in 2014. Doug Martin played in only 11 games while rushing for 494 yards while backup running back Bobby Rainey had 406 rushing yards.
